The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo gave the United States control of Utah, Nevada, California, and parts of Arizona and New Mexico in exchange for $15 million. Mexico did not become part of the United States and did not retain any of its other territories in the West. The treaty also set the Mexico-U.S. border at the Rio Grande, not the Nueces River, and did not require the U.S. to vacate all territories it had occupied during the war.
